To lead is to show the way. Our leadership team is responsible for motivating our associates toenlightenment, empowerment, and enthusiasm for what they do. At the very core, we are each responsible for respecting the environment, each other and the dignity of the profession.

Craig L. Wesner, P.E. Chief Executive Officer

As CEO, Craig's primary role is the management and leadership of the firm.

Then there's the occasional project that requires him to step into an active project management role. Craig joined Lumos in 1998 as an expert in water resource planning and design of water and sewer utility facilities. As a key member of the leadership team he was also able to enjoy the flexibility the firm provided for him to serve our Nation during a 24 year career with the Nevada Air National Guard as an Air Force Officer. He spent 18 years with the 152nd Civil Engineering Squadron with 12 in Command and 8 years as the Deputy Support Group Commander.

"What I am particularly proud of is the family culture and the working environment that we have created at Lumos, each employee is treated with respect and dignity. We go to great lengths to allow our employees to grow and develop their individual strengths which ultimately have a profound impact on our society. Every morning I look forward to going to work and being a part of the Lumos Team."

When not at work, Craig loves to spend time outdoors cycling, running, hiking or traveling with his wife around the country visiting our National Parks.

Randall M. Long, P.E. Chief Operating Officer

It's the broad spectrum of civil engineering that has allowed Lumos & Associates to expand in multiple directions, and for Lumos principals and associates to grow within their own specialties and interests. Randall Long's career has afforded him a diverse background from designing piles to hydraulic modeling of public water systems.

"At the end of the day, I practice in the areas that I prefer while having a background that allows me to sell the company's services," he said. “One of my most rewarding projects during my career at Lumos has been representing the Gardnerville Ranchos GID as their District Engineer for over a decade." While few engineers have the opportunity to represent a community that provides roadway, water, sewer, parks, and open space services, Lumos is proud of the District's accomplishments under Randall's oversight.

As an avid outdoorsman Randall fell in love with Nevada in 1988. Fly fishing, hunting and mountaineering are his favorite hobbies, but time permitting he'll never turn down biking, skiing, or water sports. Randall enjoys his role in the foundation of Lumos' collaborative company culture. He is proud to be part of the new ownership and leadership, and cherishes the mentoring from previous leaders within Lumos.

Mike Bennett is the Director of the Engineering Division, overseeing all engineering activities for Lumos & Associates.

Mike has been around since the inception of Lumos & Associates, not as a principal or an associate. He was a kid growing up in Carson City, when Paul Lumos built one of the first new office buildings to house the young engineering firm. Seven years later, Mike went to work at Lumos after graduating from Carson High School.

"Working at Lumos has allowed me to be a part of some very special projects," Mike said. The Silverland Schools Complex for the Lyon County School District is one of his largest projects to date and includes the completed middle school campus plus a site for a new elementary school. Mike helped rebuild the Eureka Airport in 21 days in 2012. The schedule was so tight because the airport serves Med Flight aircraft and supports air operations for fighting nearby wildland fires. Everyone on this project understood the need and worked with purpose to get the project done on time," he explained. "The Mitch Pond in Gardnerville Ranchos is also one of my favorites. This project created an urban fishery that enjoys constant use by the residents of Carson Valley"

Mike is the current Principal-in-Charge and Project Manager on the Downtown Carson Streetscape Project, creating a multimodal corridor with efficient traffic flow, safe bike lanes and pedestrian access, for the economic vitality and revitalization of downtown Carson City.

Mike enjoys fishing himself — fly fishing in the Sierra's, plus riding his dirt bike around the Pine Nut Range, track days at Reno-Fernley Raceway, camping, traveling, and helping out his daughter's youth theater group.

Thomas W. Young, P.E. Principal, Group Manager, Engineering Division

Tom joined Lumos, as a University of Nevada student intern, in 1994, and today serves as an active principal and group manager.

Tom's broad background has allowed him to work on many exciting projects over the years, but he quickly points to the award winning Eureka Fire House and Eureka Airport Reconstruction projects among his favorites. In addition, Tom oversaw the City of Reno's 10 million gallon per day sewer interceptor project adjacent to that very same university where he began his career nearly 20 years ago.

Working with his clients and associates to define the best team and to complete the best possible project is why he enjoys leading Lumos' innovative and diversified organization.

Tom enjoys his free time by volunteering with the youth in his community and spending time with family, coworkers and friends, and by hiking, bicycling, camping, and flying as well as just "puttering" on projects in the backyard with his wife and two daughters.

For more than 35 years Terrence has been a licensed structural engineer working throughout the Western United States. A graduate of the University of Nevada, Reno with a B.S. in Civil Engineering, Terrence has provided his expertise to a wide range of sectors including transportation, military institutions, green energy companies, and seismic retrofits for historic buildings throughout urban and rural communities. In 2001, Terrence formed the Tobey-Wade Consulting Structural Engineering Group which was acquired by Lumos & Associates in 2017. Terrence is a licensed structural engineer in Nevada, California, Arizona, Idaho, Hawaii, New Mexico and Utah.

Steven G. Moon, P.E. Principal, Director, Construction Division

Originally from Fallon, Nevada, Steve Moon enjoys working close to his family and lifelong friends. He also enjoys being a part of a company with a diverse clientele working on smaller projects to multi-million dollar infrastructure projects. In particular, the City of Fallon's Maine Street Rehabilitation projects have been some of the most rewarding for Steve.

"There is great satisfaction for me in taking an older portion of a street in your home town and renewing it," Steve said. “I've been a part of the vision and construction that has turned Fallon into a beautiful and vibrant community."

Steve is a great mentor for Lumos & Associates. He has a passion for teaching. He also has a love for sports and it's only natural that he spends his free time coaching football, baseball, and wrestling. Steve has directed Leagues, served as equipment manager and coordinated youth football camps and coaching clinics; and enjoyed every minute of it. "I started when my daughter was just old enough to play, now with my son, I will continue coaching at least through his high school years, if not longer."

Lumos is a company that has a great sense of family and our family is a great part of this community.
